Re: multiple sms using EMS standard

Hello again,

thank you for your answer, but how could I implement this in my
application? formaly, there should be a number in UDH, which shows, what
part of SMS it is. so, for example, if my melody exceeds 128 bytes and is
140 bytes, then after sending first 128 bytes how could I send other
12? my application will format correct UDH, but will kannel
know, that it should send these TWO sms one after other? 

and one more thing to know - when sending EMS with UPI (User Prompt
Indicator), there is no text field and everything goes into UDH, as i
wrote before. 

regards,
Dziugas Baltrunas
